A month before Jackson Mahomes slid into the comment section of Brittany Mahomes’s family snap, he uploaded a group shot with his brother and sister-in-law. On May 19, Jackson posted an Instagram photo with Brittany and Patrick Mahomes at the Kelce Jam festival. “KELCE JAM W/FAM,” was the caption. That was not Jackson’s first post that included Brittany since being shunned from the pre-Super Bowl VIP. In March, he uploaded two posts featuring the former soccer player, so it appeared there were no hard feelings — at least on Jackson’s end.
Even though the viral video of Jackson being denied from the VIP section was bad optics, Brittany had always defended her brother-in-law. In March 2023, Jackson faced allegations of sexual battery when he was accused of forcibly kissing an employee of a restaurant. The following month, Brittany was asked to weigh in on Jackson’s allegations during a Q&A on Instagram. “They are ignorant,” she wrote (via the New York Post). “He is a human just trying to live his life and find his way,” Brittany added.
The following month, Jackson was officially charged in the case, and Brittany left a cryptic message on her Instagram Stories that could have been aimed at her brother-in-law. “Unfortunately, a lot of y’all met me when I lacked boundaries … Let me reintroduce myself, I burn bridges as needed,” she wrote in May 2023 (via the New York Post). The case against Jackson also complicated his and Brittany’s relationship with Taylor Swift.
